One of the roles of an engineering manager is to manage and develop expertise within the workforce. To this end, effective knowledge worker management requires insight into psychology and how it relates to the development of expertise. Modern psychology theory identifies three modes of mental function: cognition, affect, and conation. This research examines the role of affect and conation in the development of expertise.

520 $a One of the roles of an engineering manager is to manage and develop expertise within the workforce. To this end, effective knowledge worker management requires insight into psychology and how it relates to the development of expertise. Modern psychology theory identifies three modes of mental function: cognition, affect, and conation. This research examines the role of affect and conation in the development of expertise.
520 $a Expert theorists have assembled a strong body of evidence which suggests that superior achievement depends on adaptation resulting from sustained purposeful engagement. A substantial amount of research is devoted to the role of cognition in enabling expert performance. However, conation and affect are also hypothesized to be influential factors, as they determine the motivation and approach of the individual towards continuous development.
520 $a A survey instrument was compiled, consisting of a set of conative and affective traits hypothesized to influence expertise development and a construct representing expertise. The survey was distributed within a large, federally-funded research and development laboratory which operates in the aviation and aerospace industry, producing a total of 541 responses. The structural equation modeling (SEM) statistical method was utilized to model and analyze the relationship between conative and affective traits and the development of occupational expertise.
520 $a The findings of this research support the hypothesis that conative and affective traits are influential during expertise development. The dissertation results indicate that positive achievement orientation holds a strong, positive influence on expertise development. The mastery goal type coupled with the approach goal posture is the only goal orientation which positively influences expertise development. Work engagement holds a positive influence on expertise development.
520 $a Expertise theorists hypothesize that expert-level technical performance is achievable for any individual with normal cognitive ability. Unfortunately, the reality is that only a small segment of knowledge workers currently approach this performance threshold. If engineering managers can access even a fraction of the remaining untapped potential, the implications for society are tremendous. By understanding the role of conative and affective traits in expertise development, managers can enhance professional development infrastructure and training methods in order to better support expertise development.
